Until August 6, the Soares dos Reis National Museum grants a 50% discount on the entrance fee to all volunteers and pilgrims registered for the World Youth Day (WYD) Lisbon 2023.
The measure is part of the special program defined for this period by the Ministry of Culture, with the realization of a cycle of initiatives to be launched or ongoing, in a context of religion and culture.
Thus, all volunteers and pilgrims registered for World Youth Day, duly accredited and regardless of age, have a 50% discount on the price of admission tickets to museums, monuments and palaces, under the supervision of the Directorate-General for Cultural Heritage.
Lisbon is preparing rigorously to welcome with open arms the biggest event for Catholic youth, which brings together thousands of young people from the four corners of the world for a moment of sharing, celebration and communion with Pope Francis, from 1 to 6 August.
During this week, the “Days in the Dioceses” (DND) are taking place in 17 dioceses in Algarve; Angra; Aveiro; Beja; Braga; Bragança-Miranda; Coimbra; Évora; Funchal; Guarda; Lamego; Leiria-Fátima; Portalegre-Castelo Branco; Porto; Viana do Castelo; Vila Real and Viseu.
“Days in the Dioceses” is a meeting that precedes the week of WYD Lisbon 2023 and consists of the integration of young people from all over the world in the parish communities of the various dioceses of the country.
During these days, participants can get to know better the region that welcomes them, as well as the local Church and its specificities, staying, as in the week of the Day, in family homes, parish or public facilities, in order to to be able to have a true experience of Church, evangelization and mission.
